Just home from the game
What a dreadful game.
The stadium was like Scottish Div 2, (well, maybe Div 1) & unfortunately so was the football.
Burton were poor, but had the better chances, and they will be kicking themselves not to have scored and won today.
I think Farke got it wrong - should have seen today as a great chance to get 3 points and started with the same strong team that beat Birmingham. Smacks of misguided arrogance to me.
Nobody seemed able to make the first ball stick today - we won possession and then lost it again immediately so many times. Watkins in particular had a dreadful first touch throughout. Husband was also way off the pace.
If I was Nelson, I'd be looking to get out of here in the transfer window. He had totally crap service and he looks a pale shadow of the striker of 1 year ago.
Also, I'm starting to think Pinto is the wrong player to be captain. Stuck with him for the rest of this season now.
Highlights for me were:
1) counting how many balls got kicked out of the stadium
2) finding a free parking space
3) the Hanley song and the 12 days of Huckerby song
I am usually very positive, but that really amounted only to 5 hours of my life I will never get back, nothing more.
